Movie of the Month

This month we celebrate our nation's birth with a Founding Father's Double Feature. First is Faith of Our Fathers a fascinating documentary that reveals what the founding fathers of the United States intended when they framed the Constitution and wrote the First Amendment religion clauses. Were the fathers of our country trying to create a Christian nation, a secular paradise, or something in between? This film takes a look at how our understanding of church and state relations has changed over time due to Supreme Court decisions and cultural pressures. Followed by Rediscovering God In America.
In this new documentary film, Newt and Callista Gingrich take us on an inspiring walking tour of our nation’s important buildings, monuments and memorials in Washington D.C. and show the very important role that religion played in the minds of the founders of this country who created our government. It makes clear that the founders of the USA believed that you could not have a free society unless it was founded upon a belief in God as the source of a value system and moral code that required a personal responsibility that supported free and open institutions.
